Hi, I have a simple question: Can software raid survive one disk hot unplug when the raid is under heavy load? During my test (3ware 7500-8 jbod mode, software raid 5), I ran bonnie++ on the top of md and then unplugged one disk. I saw a lot of scsi disk errors from dmesg, and then scsi layer marked this disk offline. Finnally md detected disk failure and mark this disk as faulty. But bonnie++ still hangs there with state 'D' which could not be killed by -9. Thanks!
